It's quite common that GUI applications produce quite a lot of text
output when run from the command line. You can get rid of that text by
replacing lines like
command-name &
with lines like
command-name >/dev/null 2>/dev/null &
This redirects the *standard output* and *standard error output* of the
new process to your system's local black hole. Additionally, if you
don't want the processes started with "&" to be killed when you close
the terminal window, you can use the "disown" shell builtin after
spawning each process. So, in your terminal you could now write
command-name >/dev/null 2>/dev/null &
disown
You can also make it a bit shorter at the cost of adding a bit more
complexity. Feel free to ignore this option and its explanation if it
seems like too much of a black magic. So, you'd write in one line
command-name >/dev/null 2>&1 & disown
The second occurrence of "/dev/null" got replaced with "&1" which is a
reference to already-assigned standard output destination. And the
newline before "disown" was removed because the shell already knows the
stuff after "&" is a separate command

Re: creating a manifest
Hi,
thanks very much for your help.
1.
When I was opening that profile I used musescore, I had to close it
and then open audacity and so on.
It seems to me I can’t open several packages at once.
Or I don’t know how to do it, if possible.
Sorry, this was my mistake.
the terminal doesn’t show the "prompt" (I don’t know how it is called)
gfp@Tuxedo ~ after opening one package
only if I enlarge the terminal, than it shows up.

2.
Two ways that you can do it:
1) With two terminals:
1. In the first one run:
$ source ~/Projekte/Musik/guix-profil/etc/profile;
$ mscore;
2. In the the second terminal run:
$ source ~/Projekte/Musik/guix-profil/etc/profile;
$ vlc;
2) With one terminal:
Run the first, (or all commands) in the background, so that the
shell directly prompts you for the next command:
$ source ~/Projekte/Musik/guix-profil/etc/profile;
$ mscore &
$ vlc &
$
with the first and second possibility you mentioned
I can open several packages, which is good.
But it opened Musescore 4.0.2, which shouldn’t.
and I don’t understand why.
and there are loads of messages:
gfp@Tuxedo ~$ guix shell -p ~/Projekte/Musik/guix-profil

I don’t know what to do with them.
3.
with the command:
gfp@Tuxedo ~$ guix shell -p ~/Projekte/Musik/guix-profil
it opened Musescore 3.6.2 which I want, and that is in that manifest
installed.
But with this command there are messages:

100% (rounded from 1.00)

I don’t know what that means.

What would be the difference to have several profiles in my main profile
without haveing guix home,
What do you mean by having several profiles in your main profile?
AFAIK there is no way to put one profile inside another.
Do you mean several packages in one profile?
I didn’t know how to call it.
I meant by "main profile" the profile which I had in the beginning after
installing Guix.
before I created other profiles.
(/home/gfp/.config/guix/current
/home/gfp/.guix-profile)
How do you call it?
my "dot profiles"?
gfp@Tuxedo ~$ guix package --list-profiles
/home/gfp/Projekte/EmacsManifest/guix-profil
/home/gfp/Projekte/GNUCash/guix-profil

Re: creating a manifest
Hi, Today I wanted to update my manifest with musescore-3.6.2, ardour, audacity, obs, vlc. and it wanted to build musescore 4.02 (the current new version). I stopped it immeadiately. I was wondering why the update didn’t want to keep musescore-3.6.2 even though the version 3.6.2 is clearly in the manifest. If so, I can never update this manifest or I create a separate musescore-3.6.2 profile with only that package, which I will never update.

Re: creating a manifest
Hi,
thank you very much for help.
I was reading the manual about manifests, but still I don’t understand
everything what I have to do.
I created now through your help a manifest with 6 packages,
but I got an error message:
Profil mit 6 Paketen wird erstellt …
guix package: Fehler/mistake: rename-file: Ist ein Verzeichnis/is a
directory
and it didn’t create the directories in my "Musik" directory, but
besides it, so I have home/gfp/Projekte/EmacsManifest
Musescore
Musik
Musik.new
Musik-1-link
I wanted to put it in the "Musik" directory in order to have a good
structure.
1.
Is it possible to change this?
..
I did a:
guix package -p /home/gfp/Projekte/Musik -m
/home/gfp/Projekte/Musik/musik.scm
2.
What would I have to do instead, in order to put it in my "Musik" directory?
(to know for the next time, to create an other profile)
Kind regards

The cryptic error message is about an unexpected character, namely
(specifications->manifest ’ <- this backtick
It needs to be the ascii >'<.
If you fix that, you get new errors.
If you read the info page "Writing manifests", you'll see you have to
use the package names like when using `guix package -i musescore` etc.
when using specifications->manifest.
guix search musescore would show you under `name:`, that the musescore
package (in guix) is named in lowercase. Also OBS Studio is called obs,
vlc is called vlc etc.
But you can not add cmdline args like --with-branch.
For that you need to instead create a new package definition for
musescore version 3.6.2. The info page gives you an example, which you
just adjust. Using guix edit musescore you see how musescore is defined.
You can notice, there is a version field. So lets create a new package
with adjusted version:
(define musescore-3.6.2
(package
(inherit musescore)
(version "3.6.2")))
;; We create this manifest from a _package_, and not from a
;; _specification_ (which is just something like a string "musescore")
(packages->manifest (list musescore-3.6.2))
So now putting everything together:
;; Manifest Musik Programme
(use-modules (gnu packages music)
(guix packages))
(define musescore-3.6.2
(package
(inherit musescore)
(version "3.6.2")))
;; combine both manifest lists:
(concatenate-manifests
(list
(packages->manifest (list musescore-3.6.2))
(specifications->manifest '("ardour" "audacious" "audacity" "obs"
"vlc"

musescore version 3.6.2. The info page gives you an example, which you
just adjust. Using guix edit musescore you see how musescore is defined.
You can notice, there is a version field. So lets create a new package
with adjusted version:
(define musescore-3.6.2
(package
(inherit musescore)
(version "3.6.2")))
;; We create this manifest from a _package_, and not from a
;; _specification_ (which is just something like a string "musescore")
(packages->manifest (list musescore-3.6.2))
While building guix says it's downloading musescore-4.0.1. Maybe it
switches to the respective branch before building.
I even tried explicitly writing the origin entry of
(define musescore-3.6.2
(package
(inherit musescore)
(version "3.6.2")
(source
(origin
(method git-fetch)
(uri (git-reference
(url "https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore;)
(commit (string-append "v" "3.6.2"
(file-name (git-file-name "musescore" "3.6.2"))
(sha256
(base32 "0x2aahpbvss3sjydcq6xdh198fmslgypixmd2gckfwjqzady662y"))
(modules '((guix build utils)))
(snippet

'("thirdparty/freetype"))
;; ... and precompiled binaries.
(delete-file-recursively "src/diagnostics/crashpad_handler")
(substitute* "src/diagnostics/CMakeLists.txt"
(("install") "#install"
guix shell -m manifest.scm still says 4.0.1 and executing mscore fails:
[env]$ mscore --version
QEventLoop: Cannot be used without QApplication
QEventLoop: Cannot be used without QApplication
qt.qpa.xcb: could not connect to display
qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "" even
though it was found.
This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be
initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.
Available platform plugins are: eglfs, linuxfb, minimal, minimalegl,
offscreen, vnc, xcb.
Abgebrochen
So seems like in this case it's not so easy. (Well the current guix
packaged version is 4.0.1 so a major version change happened.)
One could try using the older package definition, which is available in
the git history of guix. Commit 6a54715988aee884bbb5f81e1b718a27ff771ec4
is the newest change to musescore with 3.6.2.
9f93bcd1862c76d7ff30da6f712c9bd2912b8346 switched to 4.0. So it's parent
commit should have the newest dependencies which might work with current
guix.
I don't have time right now, but you might want to copy such an older
package definition into your manifest.scm

The cryptic error message is about an unexpected character, namely
(specifications->manifest ’ <- this backtick
It needs to be the ascii >'<.
If you fix that, you get new errors.
If you read the info page "Writing manifests", you'll see you have to
use the package names like when using `guix package -i musescore` etc.
when using specifications->manifest.
guix search musescore would show you under `name:`, that the musescore
package (in guix) is named in lowercase. Also OBS Studio is called obs,
vlc is called vlc etc.
But you can not add cmdline args like --with-branch.
For that you need to instead create a new package definition for
musescore version 3.6.2. The info page gives you an example, which you
just adjust. Using guix edit musescore you see how musescore is defined.
You can notice, there is a version field. So lets create a new package
with adjusted version:
(define musescore-3.6.2
(package
(inherit musescore)
(version "3.6.2")))
;; We create this manifest from a _package_, and not from a
;; _specification_ (which is just something like a string "musescore")
(packages->manifest (list musescore-3.6.2))
So now putting everything together:
;; Manifest Musik Programme
(use-modules (gnu packages music)
(guix packages))
(define musescore-3.6.2
(package
(inherit musescore)
(version "3.6.2")))
;; combine both manifest lists:
(concatenate-manifests
(list
(packages->manifest (list musescore-3.6.2))
(specifications->manifest '("ardour" "audacious" "audacity" "obs"
"vlc"

creating a manifest
Hi,
I wanted to create a manifest for music,
.
my "musik.scm":
;; Manifest Musik Programme
(use-modules (gnu packages version-control))
(specifications->manifest ’("Musescore '--with-branch=musescore=v3.6.2"
"Ardour" "Audacious" "Audacity" "OBS Studio" "VLC Media Player"))
..
gfp@Tuxedo ~$ guix package -p /home/gfp/Projekte/Musik -m
/home/gfp/Projekte/Musik/musik.scm
..
I got this message:
/home/gfp/Projekte/Musik/musik.scm:4:26: error: #{\x2019;}#: unbound
variable
hint: Did you forget a `use-modules' form?
I surely made a mistake in my "musik.scm"
but playing around for hours
I prefer to ask.
Kind regards
Gottfried
